There are tons of uses for displays that can be connected to a PC or other video input source that have nothing to do with home theater or general computer use. Some of the largest displays are aimed at use as digital signs like we see in airports and at some businesses. NEC has pulled a massive display out of the shadows called the P701.

The giant display has a screen measuring 70-inches and is designed to operate continuously. The huge screen has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 and a contrast ratio of 2000:1. The screen has a typical brightness of 420 cd/m2 and a maximum brightness of 600 cd/m2. NEC builds thermal protection and internal temperature sensors in to prevent damage caused by overheating.

A sealed design helps the screen survive environments with dust, grease, or steam and the display has a built-in expansion slot. Other features include a real-time clock and a scheduler that will shut the display down when it’s not needed to save power. A version of the P701 with a TV tuner called the P701-AVT will be offered as well. Both versions of the display will ship in March with the non-tuner version selling for $11,799.

Pc TV Tuner

Somewhere between a top of the line HDTV and a laptop comes this Sony all in one. They are leaders in this market because they're essentially bringing their two strongest products together into one super “desktop”. In this review I'm taking a look at Sony's VAIO VGC-LT29U 22″ PC/TV All-in-one. This wall mountable 22″ desktop is loaded and comes at a premium. I'm going to let you know just how capable it is and if it is worth all that cash. Let me start with a few of the basics.

Hardware:

Display: 22″ LCD XBrite

Tuner: ATI TV Wonder (both NTSC and ATSC tuner)

Processor: 2.50 GHz “Penryn” Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 processor

Storage Space: 1 TB hard drive

RAM: 4GB RAM (un-expandable)

Optical Drive: CD R/RW DVD R RW +/- with integrated Blu-Ray Burner and reader

Graphics Accelerator: Nvidia GeForce Go 8400 graphics

Operating System: Windows Home Vista Ultimate

In the Box: An IR remote, as well as a wireless mouse and keyboard.

This truly can do everything. If you're interested in an All in one desktop television then this is your machine. The 22″ display is clear and bright. It as good as any of Sony's Bravia televisions and the integrated tuner makes sure you'll have no trouble making those comparisons. It has plenty of hard drive space with a TB of storage. This is literally your high definition Blu-Ray player, digital video recorder, computer, and entertainment system all in one killer package.

It has a great video card, the only thing that is a little unfortunate is the Penryn, in my opinion it is a little slower than I would like to see, but does its job fine here. For the most part there really aren't too many criticisms of this Sony all in one.

Connectivity:

5 2.0 USB ports (for connecting to printers, digital cameras or MP3 players)

WiFi (connect wirelessly to your LAN)

1 FireWire (connect your digital camcorder)

ExpressCard

PCMCIA

1 standard audio out as well as optical audio out and 1 mic in

1 Modem input

1 Ethernet input

1 SD / Memory Card Slot

There obviously needs to be fewer connectivity options with this desktop thanks to the integrated monitor and mount ability. You don't really want to have a lot of wires hanging off what basically amounts to a sexy piece of art. The bottom line is I can't really imagine anyone that would be disappointed in this desktop. It is going to look great in any situation, in your rec room, in your kitchen, in your living room or bed room. It will do your office work, and it will play whatever game you toss at it, it's just going to do it all. The price reflects how loaded it really is. At a fairly firm $3200 unfortunately you'll need fairly deep pockets to bring the Sony VAIO VGC-LT29U home. However if you can afford it, you'll like it.
